As the modern era of cryosurgery began in the mid 1960s, the basic features of cryosurgical technique were established as rapid freezing, slow thawing, and repetition of the freeze-thaw cycle. Since… (More)

Cryosurgery is the use of freezing temperatures to elicit an ablative response in a targeted tissue. This review provides a global overview of experimentation in vivo which has been the basis of… (More)

While the destructive actions of a cryoablative freeze cycle are long recognized, more recent evidence has revealed a complex set of molecular responses that provides a path for optimization. The… (More)

Six different freezing/thawing programs, which varied freezing rate, duration of freezing, and thawing rates, were used to investigate the effect of these factors on cell destruction in dog skin. The… (More)

BACKGROUND
Atrio-esophageal fistulas have been described as a consequence of radiofrequency (RF) ablation for the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF). However, whether cryoablation can avoid this… (More)

The range of application of cryosurgical techniques to the treatment of cancer is widely diversified and slowly increasing in scope. From these, one may reach the general conclusion that cryosurgical… (More)
